Bought my copy somewhere in the mid 80s and it has the lyric sheet as well.
Have never seen the tour flyer supposed included with the first editions.
Picture anyone?

I bought my copy the day it was released in the UK - no lyrics sheet.

Much interesting question is - what particular variant of mastering will be used?

At least the Vinyl was remastered & cut at half-speed by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios (London, UK). No infos yet about the HiRes-Downloads.

What do you mean - whether the downloads are just «normal» wav-files or wav-files of the half-speed master?
No, I mean 2009 mastering or Japanese SACD transfer from 2011 or something new. Because if it is 2009 - no half-speed cutting will help.Quote

Why is Dirty Work RED?

My (original) Black And Blue LP also has the lyrics sheet. I think it's also there in the 1994 Virgin CD edition.

Careless Photoshop!
Oval discs, non-square album covers.
Voodoo Lounge, Bridges To Babylon, and A Bigger Bang... expanded into DOUBLE ALBUMS.

B2b and VL were double album releases on vinyl.
Also ABB would have been one (dunno if it was released on vinyl).
They all are mucch too long to fit on a single LP. Exceptional cases aside, LPs were never longer than 35-40min (originally even less) for sonic reasons (dynamics, etc.). B2B, VL and ABB are much longer than that. Longer playing time means more grooves means less space for every single groove means worse dynamics. - Of course it's just a single groove per side in the shape of a spiral but you know what I mean.

However, Aftermath was a 53 minutes single album (if memory serves).
